I have the two KOTOR games on Xbox thanks to retrocompatibility, so it really doesn't affect me, but it does suck.

I'm finally giving God of War (2018) a second chance.
Struggling to enjoy it, really. It's so freaking slow compared to the old games. Kratos can't even jump now. They took everything I liked about God of War and discarded it. Not a bad game, just not God of War.

It could release for $10 instead of $100 and I still wouldn't play it.

Sadly, it won't meet Square Enix sales expectations.

What would they say? That they are angry? 😂

@RiverGenie

Can't you use reward points as many people do though or is that not available on your region?

@Decimateh-xblz

Played it and dropped it because of that after something like 10-15 hours.

Loved everything else, but that just severely harmed my enjoyment.

I normally buy games even if they're on Game Pass, but I'm glad I didn't buy this one.

Until they add at least the option of having maps on dungeons I can't see myself giving them my money.
And I know I'm just a minority on this, but it's a personal gripe of mine.

Game was a masterpiece. Sadly, most people didn't even give it a chance.

You can still buy it on the Xbox store but I don't think it'll last.

Exclusives are bad now?

I will 100% be going back to this! I loved Shadows. The only thing stopping it from being a 10 for me was the lack of Animus/ISU stuff. And Mercenaries.

Hope they add some of that.

I still don't know why the game wasn't called Ducktective.

If Borderlands 4 is the highlight... That's such a red flag.

Edit: Wait... JUST Borderlands? Yeah. Hard pass.

I ended up dropping it, sadly.
I know there's a great game there, but the lack of a map in dungeons killed my enjoyment.
I guess it isn't for me.

Even PS+ is getting the remaster treatment. 😂

@Michael2008ish

I love it. I just have a terrible sense of direction.
First two areas were alright, no problems. Third one got frustrating for me.
I know it's a "me" problem.
I wouldn't like to continue and feel like it gets worse with every area.
Also stopping playing one day and continuing the next disorients me without a map (mini or not).

Love everything else about the game.

Expedition 33, but I'm not sure I'll continue with it.
The lack of minimap is hurting my enjoyment, so it's a shame, but maybe it isn't a game for me after all.

@RZ-Atom

Or just play however you want and let other people do it too?

Say yes to guides if you want. Or don't. It's your choice, people.

Needs a minimap. But otherwise great so far.

@SRB-GAMER

There's city maps if you zoom enough, I too didn't realize that for a while.
Not sure about the caves, I jumped to Clair Obscur so I haven't gone back yet.

I feel like major and minor skills work the same (major gives a lot of XP, minor gives less, but maybe I'm remembering wrong).

What I do feel is that it takes way longer to level up said skills.

@MrPeanutbutterz

Yes I did. And I don't really care about that stuff in a racing game.
But as I said: opinions.
I personally would never put that as a con.

The characters as a con. In a racing game. 👀

I mean yeah, it's an opinion for sure.

Reads like a 10, so that's cool.
The mini-map (or lack of) can make or break the game for me, so I'm glad I can try it on Game Pass before buying.

@Lorcansface

I vote for Cat Benatar if that helps.

Already installing!

@Foxhound

Not me, but a lot of people get Game Pass using reward points and not paying actual money.

There's no rewards in my region so for me that sucks.

Just hoping there's no Skyrim in my Oblivion.

I hope we can use Ryu too, even if it's just on a New Game+.

Still my favorite Elder Scrolls and Bethesda game before it was too dumbed down. (it's still dumbed down from Morrowind though).
I loved the quest writing, some were super creative and original, which was why I was so dissapointed in Skyrim which I felt was really uninteresting and predictable.

I never had any need to sell anything really. The game gives you way too much materials and money.
There's one quest still bugged though.
And I'm just one trophy away from the Platinum.

Hopefully there's zero Skyrim in this.

Vampire Survivors is the gift that keeps on giving.

Zero Skyrim in my Oblivion, please.

Odyssey and AC 3 still the peak. The Ezio ones are so overrated.

@Foxhound

I meant 3 onwards. When you start having Social Links and school elements.

I was pretty dissapointed by this remake. Maybe my expectations were too high. But it's not a bad game by any means. Still the worst of the "new" Persona games but a decent game.
Way better than the original, that's for sure.

The original one is backwards compatible on Xbox, but if it's not just another Skyrim, I'll be really happy. Never enjoyed Skyrim. It was such a dissapointment after Oblivion.

The auto-horse riding and not being slower on cities will be welcome!

Yes please. I'll buy it.

Just the incredible Assassin's Creed Shadows. 80 hours so far.

Same for Nintenboys.

They're still king of the hill. Why would they change the strategy?

Better than Kingdom Come? Damn, that's impressive!

The last Elder Scrolls game I enjoyed.

I was really, really excited. Now, not so much.
I don't like feeling lost and not knowing where to go. I don't have as much time to play as I had before, so if the little time I use I end up not knowing where to go, it's a waste of time for me.

The title does have Shin Megami Tensei too, so it's actually even longer.

Damn, didn't know the entire PS5 fanbase was here on PushSquare. Congrats!

Still playing and loving the amazing Assassin's Creed Shadows. Stunning game, and I'm enjoying every second.
I'm 50ish hours in and there's always something to do.
